Sirona

Like some other reviewers have mentioned, this is abysmal. Tons of 1 review accounts giving this praise saying that it keeps the audience engaged. Engaged to their phones.

Right off the dialogue is just off. This silly acting becomes obvious a few moments later and it's just all downhill. Why are you filming a fight scene two feet from the actors? Probably so we don't notice how bad it is and the angles can hide the obvious misses. I'm wondering if the camera men took a few hits filming this.

The same background music and they couldn't afford genuine squibs for gun shot hits. It seems like this was done in the 90's and is lost footage. Cheesy all the way through.

Somewhere there is one of those laboratories that does not exist and is messing around with peoples DNA. They call it Valkyrie. Throughout the movie there is a discussion of the meaning of this name.

One day a subject and her brother make a brake for it. It was not without a few casualties. So, it is time to re acquire the subjects. This is where the movie really begins as we are introduced to the team that is sent to retrieve the girl or whatever known as Sirona.

We get to go along for the ride and we see the trials ad tribulations of the hunt. We are confronted with morality and amorality. There are lots of guns and shooting. Usually, four to one. We learn about a protein called bacon.

The acting is O. K. for this sort of a cross between Sci-fi and sort of a Hallmark presentation. Nothing too spectacular but a cliff hanger ending. So, if you do not see a sequel or series by the time, you read this you might think twice about watching it.

I think I will watch again now that I know what clues to look for.

At the time of this review the sequel has been written and is currently being reviewed. I was thinking mor in the line of a series.

You have to go into this knowing it might be a concept you've heard before, but he did really well making it his own. For this film to be one of his firsts I was extremely impressed. I thought it would be on and I'd be on my phone but nope. I was sucked in! Tuck was actually my favorite character, I love a good comedic relief! I caught myself laughing out loud multiple times by his character. I loved the twist and it kept me engaged through the whole thing. I was bummed when it ended because i wanted to see more! I'd love to see more from him and would love to see a sequel to this one! A great watch, I'd recommend!

I didn't know it was an indie film, so it's pretty good for not having a Hollywood budget.

I REALLY liked that despite nearly constant conflict, it wasn't rife with constant profanity, like most Hollywood films are these days.

One should be able to just watch a film, and the story unfold, without the distraction of nearly constant profanity. In that sense, those that worked on this film, are far more mature than most Hollywood script writers. Call me old school, which I am.

Anyway, my favorite character was Tuck, because of his witty comments, and empathetic nature, which seem to be a nod to Murdock, of The A Team. Well, I saw a similarity anyway.

I think the actors & actresses did a good job, of showing the character traits of each person.

I hope there's a sequel.

Was a colossal waste of time, with glaring issues in almost every aspect. From terrible camera angles to an incoherent script, there wasn't a single redeeming feature to hold onto. Let's break it down:

Camera Work (1/5): The angles are atrocious. The filmmakers seem to have no idea how to frame a shot, constantly using awkward and unflattering angles that detract from any scene. It feels like someone picked up the camera for the first time and hit "record" without thinking about perspective or visual storytelling.

Script (0/5): The script is disjointed and lacks flow. There's no coherence from one scene to the next, making it impossible to follow the story (if there even is one). It's like a random collection of poorly written dialogue strung together, with no sense of structure or pacing. The lines themselves are cringe-worthy, often feeling forced and unnatural.

Actors (1/5): The actors? Completely unconvincing. They don't just lack talent-they also seem disinterested in what they're doing. There's no chemistry, no emotion, and worst of all, they're stiff and awkward. These are clearly not professional actors, and it shows in every scene.

Direction (0/5): The director seems to have no clue what they're doing. There's a complete lack of vision or leadership here. The scenes are poorly staged, and the lack of direction leaves the entire production feeling aimless and chaotic.
